Thanks, Seamus - Great answers - Just the ones I wanted to hear!

If you don't mind, would you provide just a little more clarification of your comparison of Parnate to Nardil:

>>Do you find your libido is strong with Parnate, neutral, or dead?
>> Same as it ever was. Will I lose sexual interest? Nah
Was your libido/sexual interest affected by Nardil?

>>I was more "content" on Nardil, but on Parnate my drive is higher.
Is a "higher drive" a good thing for you? Is there a sense of "discontent" with Parnate?

>>I sleep less, too.
Do you miss the sleep or do you feel just as refreshed by less sleep. (I sleep much less on Nardil, but I find I don't miss it at all.) I take 1 mg of Xanax to get to sleep with Nardil. Ever tried that with Parnate?

>>Stimulating side effect 2 hrs post dosing; caffeine can make this much worse.
This one scares me - HOW "stimulating"? How long does the stimulation last?

>>No constipation, urinary hesitancy or carbo cravings.
Did you suffer these side effects on Nardil but not Parnate?

One more question: Every tried Marplan? If not, would you consider it, or are you happy with Parnate?

Thanks, Seamus, for your patience. By the way, 5 pounds a year is no big deal - Nardil can add 5 pounds a month for me if I don't constantly deny my cravings and the feeling that I'm starving to death!
